The surge in demand for AI servers and Robotics has significantly boosted the need for high-layer-count, HDI PCBs and Flexible circuit boards, driving upgrades in substrate specifications and leading to an average selling price several times higher than that of standard PCBs. Additionally, the use of high-layer-count PCBs in robots has also substantially enhanced their performance and reliability.
Jerico focuses on high-layer-count, HDI PCBs and Flexible boards for the AI and Robotics field and is fully experienced in those areas.
Roles in the AI Field
1. Hosting AI Chips and Computing Components: In AI servers, PCBs not only carry core computing components like AI chips, GPUs, and FPGAs but also provide stable electrical connections and mechanical support. This ensures the structural integrity and stability of AI computing systems.
2. Supporting High Computing Power and High-Speed Networking: With the accelerated evolution of AI technology, the electronics industry has significantly increased demand for large-size, high-layer-count, high-frequency/high-speed, advanced HDI, and high-thermal-dissipation PCBs. Jerico’s products are widely used in high-speed communication networks, data center switches, AI accelerator cards, and storage systems.
Roles in the Robotics Field
1. Control Systems: The internal control systems of robots—their core components—rely on high-performance PCBs for interconnecting electronic components and enabling functional control. Humanoid robots and industrial robots typically require more advanced PCBs to support complex motion control and data processing.
2. Sensors and Actuators: Robot sensors (e.g., vision sensors, torque sensors) and actuators (e.g., motors, drivers) also utilize PCBs for signal transmission and control.
3. Diverse PCB Applications: Humanoid robots require various PCB types, including multilayer boards, HDI (High-Density Interconnect) boards, flexible circuits, and rigid-flex boards. For instance, high-precision FPCs (Flexible Printed Circuits) are extensively used in joint mechanisms to accommodate flexible movements.
4. Industry Trends and Technological Development: Growing Demand for High-Layer-Count Boards: In AI servers, PCB layer counts have surged from traditional 8 layers to 20-30 layers or higher. This trend drives a surge in demand for Jerico’s high-layer-count boards (18+ layers), primarily for AI servers and high-speed switches.
